My disastrous date

October 18th, 2014 was the day which I cannot not to embrace it in my mind. That was a Saturday, which I did not have to take my evening classes at IFL as weekday schedules. That was a very special day I wished to have in my life for these twenty years. Personally, it was supposed to be an exciting moment; however, things was not that as expected. The story was initially started by a night before it, which was in October 17th, 2014. On that night, I received a Facebook inbox from a guy, who I had been chatting to, texted to date me out to meet on the following day. I got no hesitation to refuse him since I also wondered how he was in real person beyond in social media channel. Hence, the date was confirmed. I was kind of suffering an unusual heartbeat, and I was like could not fall asleep well at that night. Tick tock, tick tock… the time was flying in a slow speed that I could not wait anymore to let it reached 5pm as soon as possible. Hours passed, I prepared myself in a gorgeous dress and preceded the dating venue a half hour to make sure I was not late for my first date as I was late for every class at school. Unluckily, the early arrival made me bored and impatient to wait my partner. I was counting my phone’s clock again to wish every minute could flied a bit faster, and it was like a ten-minute late from the appointed time that I was sit still without seeing his shadow to reach me. I was so hungry and could not wait not to order the meal. That my bad routine of posting my meal on Facebook before I had it gave myself an excuse to access the free Wi-Fi and chatted to him why he was not yet there. Then I got a sign of “Seen” via the chat without any response back. Frustrated by the chat, I was quite aggressive, and accidently on the way to restroom, I hit the café’s servant while he was serving another customer’s coffee. As a consequence, I was spilt with brown stain of coffee kissed on my beautiful dress. That

    I was closing in behind her as she reached the crosswalk. She started to cross, of course I followed. After we crossed the street, she walked for awhile, then she sat down on a communal bench. “May I sit here?” I asked. “Of course,” she replied. A minute or two later, she asked “You look familiar, do I know you?” I stated who I was. Everything clicked after that. We started talking about the old days when nothing really matters. I lost track of time, we sat there for what seemed like minutes. Only to find out it had been a couple hours. We exchanged phone numbers, I told her to keep in touch. We went our separate ways, I called a cab and went back to my…

    The morning went so fast, I was slightly nervous about seeing Josie again since it had been three months since our last encounter. I put on a t-shirt and shorts on then stood in front of the mirror as I splashed my face with water. I looked at the clock and saw it was 11:50 so I grabbed my helmet and jacket as I pushed my motorcycle out the garage. It wasn’t until I got to the street before Subway that I realised my phone had fallen out of my pocket and I had left my wallet at home. I knew then I was going to be late and Josie was going to…

    Here's a cute story. It's my first Halloweekend as a college student and I'm anxious to go out and have a good time. That's when I met him. I'm pretty sure he was into me almost instantly because he paid extra attention to everything I said and paid for all of my drinks that night. Sweet, right? But I wasn't into it. He tried for a good two weeks to get my attention so I gave in and let him kiss me one night. I still wasn't into him, of course. It wasn't until he took me on the cutest date, talked to me like we were old friends, kissed me goodbye... then proceeded to ignore me for a week, that I wanted him.…

    Our relationship began like very few relationships do, on Facebook. In June of 2009, after I had been accepted into a Fall 2009 freshman class, a boy said hello in a message and a 4-page paper could not even touch the surface of our relationship in those past 2 years, but I will do my best to explain as much as possible. Over the next few months, the relationship evolved from Facebook messages, to the live chat, until he finally asked me for my number and the texting began. Then one summer day, my phone rang, and we had our first telephone conversation, although sparked due to a drunken impulse from the mystery man on the other end. Over the span of a few months, I learned so much about this future classmate of mine, from his music taste, to his life in Southern California, and much more. I’m not sure if I’m proud or not of how well versed I am in the subject of Computer Mediated Communication. However, no matter how I feel about our introduction and first spoken words, I would certainly say since the day I got that first Facebook message, the relationship with this boy has been nothing less than interesting.…

    I'm in band class standing at my bass drum in the concluding hours of school. It happens to be a Tuesday on this fine September 18th. Then my ears began to ring. I guess since I'm so use to loud banging drums, my ears ring, I'm not quite sure. I then heard the metallic and electronic sound that is tuned to a B natural, what normal people would call a bell, and dash to the bus stop to meet her. I had recently met this amazing girl, and it turns out that she has a liking for me. Today is the day I am going to “pop the question”. I walk through the crowded hallway of anxious and raucous high schoolers, speed through the lunchroom, and finally head out the back doors of the high school to meet my future girlfriend, hopefully. I push open the metal and beaten up doors to be blinded by the sun; the bus stop was on the west side of the building. Rushing past everyone, I think some people may have said “hi” to me, and ignoring the world. I make a beeline straight toward that beaming smile, short dirty blonde hair and bright blue eyes. She would occasionally wear a scarf or graphic tee. My ears started ringing again as I approach her. I arrive in her embrace and my muffled voice asks how her day was, and she responds with something generic, yet it sounds like an angel. We decide to unwind, therefore we seat our bodies on the bench momentarily. Regular conversation began to unfold, and pretty soon after there was an awkward silence. Now was my chance to request a more serious friendship. I grab her hand, and without hesitation I lead her to a confidential place. I hear my heart pounding like a hammer on a nail, and every step I take is a step closer to great success or great failure. I have butterflies in my stomach. My nervous feeling is even more heightened just because I am in the moment, and there is no turning back. As we arrive and she looks puzzled, but simultaneously she has this look as if she knew every…

    The morning of 27 February 2013 was just like any other morning of the year. Allow me to walk you through it. My mother woke me up in a fit of rage, as she usually does (apparently I don’t wake up swiftly enough for her). After dragging myself out of bed, I threw some clothes together to look good for the ladies, and then ate some breakfast to keep myself energized for said ladies. Afterwards, I brushed my teeth, put on deodorant, and brushed my hair (don’t want to look and smell like a hobo). Finally, I kissed my mommy and said bye as I headed out the door to go to school.…

    My mom and I were running late. Not like it was anything new. We were supposed to be in Moulton no later than 5:30, and now it was closer to 6:00. We finally pulled into the apartment complex, where we were supposed to meet this guy, at a little after 6:00. After searching for this guy for a few minutes[->0] and a few phone calls, we assumed that we had missed him. "See Mom, you should have gotten off of work early," I said just as I saw the guy pull into the parking lot. "Hey are you ready to move into your apartment?" asked the guy.After a few minutes of struggling to get the furniture into the apartment, I figured it was the end of the adventure. A few weeks[->1] later, after getting home from work, my mom was telling me that I would never guess who had called her earlier in the day. Not being in a great mood, I just shrugged my shoulders as to suggest that I didn't really care. Then she asked me if I remembered the guy who we had met just a few days before. She told me that he had called to ask her if she wanted to go out one night that coming weekend.…

    Today is the first day of my SPM examination. I had promised to my dad to get straight A’s in all subjects and the X-Box 360 was on the line, so that I could not afford to miss my Bahasa Melayu exam or fail to sit for it. After taking my super fast shower, I ran downstairs and skipped several staircases. Luck was not with me, I accidently had kicked my fat cat which was lying on the last staircase. I fell hard on the floor and my face was just a millimeter away from my father’s favourite solid metal Liberty Statue floor lamp which he had bought last year on our previous family trip. I was nearly sent to the hospital than getting myself to school. My knees and elbows were numbed and hurt. I ignored the pain and quickly got back on my foot. My mum was smiling cynically at me as she was used to my attitude of being late to school. Poor Jinggo was running hysterically and hiding under the dining chair taking his cover for any incoming assault he may receive. He must be regretted of mistakenly choosing a wrong spot in the house to relax himself this morning. It was not his first time, perhaps he really loves the spot even it came with a high risk warning sign on it.…
